^ Along the same note....:)

All the world's religions are speaking of the same Reality. They have different words, different concepts and ideas, but there's really only one Reality, and there's only one Spirit moving through all life. There might be different techniques to get there, but there's only that is real, and when you're there you know it. Whatever you want to call it — you can give it different names — it's all the same thing.

Oscar Wilde is the man and one of my favorites to quote (just take a look at a lot of my posts in this thread %)), never heard that one before though, thanks for sharing.

“If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough” ~Albert Einstein


dp, Oscar Wilde is one of my favourites, as well (obviously, haha)! Glad you enjoyed it!
I've also always really taken a liking to that first Einstein quote :D

^ I've always loved that, as well. Reminds me of another one of my favourites, actually.

“We are not punished for our sins, but by them.”- Elbert Hubbard
I never believed in the concept of 'sin'—until an extremely inexplicable occurrence. Still don't look at is as a religious word, but merely just a statement to describe morality (or lack thereof).

Also really dig the following:
"If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading."- Lao Tzu

Trust - Love - Respect



If you are going to have other people trust you...you must feel that you can trust them too....
even when your in the dark and falling.


Find someone that can make you smile and don't give up on them. There is only one happiness in life and that is to be loved and be loved in return. The only people you need in your life are the ones that prove they need you in theirs.


Last but not least.....

There are no regrets in life, just lessons.
 
^All these really pertain to my life ATM :)

''Incredibly true'' doesnt sound 'silly' at ALL!

To say something is true usually signifies that you aknowledge it/agree with it, but it being ''incredibly true'' seems to signify you have lived it!!:D
